WORCESTER 
Little Abigail Clinton may be the only baby in the city born on 12-12-12 at, get this, 12:12 p.m.

Her proud mother Ra Chan-Clinton, 34, said her grandmother wants to nickname her “Lady 12.”

“My mother will probably play the lottery like nobody's business,” Mrs. Chan-Clinton said. “It is a fun day for her.”

It is her and husband John Clinton's third child. The family lives in Worcester.

They have two other daughters, ages 2 and 7, but Mrs. Chan-Clinton said the only unusual thing about the dates they were born on is that they were both born early, like little Abigail, and in the month of July.

The stay-at-home mom said she hasn't thought about what the family will do to celebrate the uniqueness of their daughter being born on the last alliteration date of this century.

She said she knows her daughter's birth date is special and it may have changed her feelings about superstition.

“I don't think I am,” she said, smiling. “I don't know. We'll see.”

Dr. Anita L. Kostecki, who helped deliver Abigail, said in her 16 years of delivering babies this is the first baby with such a unique birth date.

“I think it is a singular event,” Dr. Kostecki said. “How many times is 12-12-12 going to come?”

In Boston, a baby was born at 12:12 p.m. at Massachusetts General Hospital to parents Colleen and Joe Klinker.

Her proud papa, a 31-year-old Coast Guard lieutenant and public affairs officer, said the timing was mostly a coincidence. At 12:11 p.m., Colleen Klinker saved the final push until the clock ticked to a minute later.

“I definitely never, ever expected anything like this and it's really cool,” the 33-year-old homemaker and former teacher said. “But I am just so happy to be holding her safe in my arms ... I would have taken her at any day, any time.”

Noelle's dad said they chose the newborn's middle name for a reason. He said her arrival was a special blessing after he and his wife lost a daughter Melody. She never took a breath after her birth last October.

Noelle joins big sister Gracie, 5, and big brother J.T., 4.

Wearing a shirt that said “Best Sister Ever,” Gracie helped feed her sister a bottle after meeting her for the first time.

“I was really excited because my first little sister went up to heaven. And now, I got a new sister,” she said, as her parents held back tears.

Colleen Klinker said spirits were high in the delivery room and she was laughing as Noelle was born. “If this has anything to do with the rest of her life, she'll bring the party,” Colleen said.
